The Female Persuasion

Meg Wolitzer

Inspired by feminist, Faith Frank, college freshman, Greer Kadetsky, stands up to a boy who gropes her at a frat party. She shares her story with Faith, bringing the two closer and eventually they begin working together. Greer alienates those closest to her when she places her career first. She deceptively fails to pass her best friends resume on to Faith, and neglects her long time boyfriend after he experiences a family tragedy. Wolitzer's timely novel is sure to be as big of a success as her 2013 hit The Interestings.
